Why read it
A missing island, three imperfect friends and clues you can reason through with them. For ages 9-11.
The official maps say Brindle has vanished. Ada, Kit and Mina can still see its lighthouse. Join three young apprentices on a journey through moving islands, where a careful question can change the route home.
Recommended reading age: 9-11. Content rating: All ages. Season 1 is complete: eight chapters, with the full adventure available to read in order.
What you will explore
Coordinates, fractions and capacity, fair comparisons, levers, circuits, reflection and measurements. Helpful starting points are counting, halving, reading a simple grid and recognising centimetres, metres and litres. The ideas draw on introductory and revision Key Stage 2 topics; this is not a complete curriculum.
The story comes first. Each chapter has an accessible transcript and an optional Inside the discovery question with a revealable answer. You can continue without answering.
